Cut a tunnel through the roast and stuff with prunes (remove any pips).

Rub the roast with the dry spice mixture and place it in a roasting tin, fat side up, for 1 hour at 200Â°C.

After the first hour start basting the meat with the basting liquid, add a bit of water if it seems to dry out. Roast for another hour (about 2hours total).

Take the meat out to rest. pour of juices and liquid from the pan into a saucepan. Thicken the sauce with a bit of flour stirred into cold water to avoid lumps.

Bubble for a few minutes, add cream and simmer a bit more. I hope you enjoy it!
